Richibucto (Beaurivage)

A world of ocean marvels, cultural wonders and family-friendly fun await you in this charming seaside community. Richibucto has a rich and vibrant history, and the unique cultural landscape created almost 4 centuries ago – a combination of Mi'gmaq, Spanish, Acadian, Celtic and English cultures – is still alive and well today in the region's food, architecture and celebrations.

Stop by the Richibucto Visitor Information Centre for a panel display depicting Richibucto's colourful history and for information about local events, festivals and not-to-be-missed attractions. The Richibucto River Museum's impressive collection of portraits and documents will provide you with an eye-opening window to the past. Children and adults alike will enjoy the interpretive programs at Kouchibouguac National Park, where visitors can listen to fireside stories, go on a Voyageur canoe adventure or join the Young Naturalists Club. Bring out a little family-friendly competition with a game of Farmersgolf at Bonar Law Historic Site.

The region's beautiful coastal landscape can best be seen with a stroll along the seaside trails of Jardine Municipal Park and a visit to the great sand dunes of nearby Irving Eco-Centre, La Dune de Bouctouche. You won't want to miss Olivier Soapery: Canada's Soap Economuseum, just a short drive away in Saint-Anne-de-Kent. Whether you're longing for a relaxing vacation or ready for your next exciting adventure, Richibucto has just what you're looking for. Come drop anchor with us!
